Do your prayers ever feel like a jumbled alphabet?
That’s because we’re human! And it’s ok.
I’m so grateful that when my words don’t make sense, God knows the answer…even if I didn’t voice the right question!
Isaiah 55:8-9, says, “For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, ” declares the Lord.
“As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts.” (NIV)
This verse may be referring to our sin compared to God’s grace and his peace. So when my sinful mind can’t or doesn’t form thoughts and words that coincide with my tangled web of emotions, I try to be still…
as God says to,
“…be still, and know that I am God…” (Psalm 46:10 NIV)
And that makes me feel secure knowing that his thoughts and ways are higher than mine!
Striving to tread…on high places,
